Film Junan stars a nude Mayuko Iwasa and a talking vagina

Have you ever wanted to see a film about a talking vagina?

You can from December 7 in Japan.

Junan is based on a 1997 book by Kaoruko Himeno about a pure girl who becomes interested in sexuality and whose vagina then suddenly develops not only a personality — but even a voice!

The lead is played by the lovely Mayuko Iwasa, who will be stripping off for the role, including a full nude scene. Iwasa is more known as an idol than a serious actress, though this odd movie will no doubt not do any harm to her reputation for being sexy. She has released a few photo books, including at least one semi-nude book in 2012.

This might be the strangest cinematic release to grace local screens for many a moon.

By the way, the title means “passion”, as in a religious one of suffering. Mel Gibson this ain’t!

Here are some highlights from the nude scenes.
